As the weather started to warm up, many homeowners began to focus on renovating their new houses, leading to a small surge in activity in the Harbin home decoration market. During recent visits to areas like Shanghai Street and Haicheng Street, where building material stores are concentrated, reporters noticed that while many consumers pay close attention to tile prices and design styles, they often overlook an important factor: water absorption rate.
According to a well-known tile store, tiles with low water absorption offer better internal stability and are ideal for high-moisture areas such as kitchens and bathrooms. If the water absorption rate is too high, the tiles may expand over time, potentially causing wall tiles to crack or fall off, and floor tiles to become hollow or loose.
Some homeowners also confuse floor tiles with wall tiles during renovation. While these two types of tiles have different purposes, their water absorption rates vary accordingly—floor tiles typically have a lower absorption rate. Although product descriptions usually specify whether a tile is suitable for walls or floors, improper installation can still lead to issues.
To check the water absorption rate, experts from the Harbin Housing Bureau suggest pouring water on the back of a tile. If the water is absorbed slowly or not at all, it’s a sign of good quality and low water absorption. If the water spreads quickly, the quality might be poor.
Experts emphasize that the most critical factor when choosing ceramic tiles is overall quality. In addition to checking the water absorption rate, you can lift the tile and tap it gently with your index finger. A crisp, clear "ping" sound indicates high density and good quality, while a dull "thud" suggests the tile hasn't been properly fired during manufacturing. Always make sure to inspect the tiles carefully before making a purchase.
Electric Actuator
Electric Actuator For Ball Valve, Electric Actuator For Butterfly Valve
Electric actuators are electro-mechanical devices that are used to remotely control quarter turn valves, such as ball and butterfly valves. Compared to their pneumatic and hydraulic counterparts, electric valve actuators provide a more energy-efficient, clean, and quiet method of valve control. They can be bought together with the valve as a package or as a separate unit and added onto an existing quarter turn valve.
